It seems to be applying some kind of gas and he slurs his speech without it. Always wondered what it was supposed to be. Anyone know?

I think it's one of those steam inhaler things for people with asthma.

Maybe he got his jollies from huffing nitrous oxide, like Dennis Hopper's character in Blue Velvet.

A very early type of asthma inhaler.

Yep and he's always switching back and forth between that and a cigarette.
